the shape of wake behind a wind turbine is normally assumed to have a hat shape for the models used in wind farm layout optimization purposes; however, it is know from experimental tests and numerical simulations that this is not a real assumption. in reality, the results of actual measurements and detailed numerical simulation show that the velocity in wake region has a s-shape profile. the pr...

A semi-analytical model of hydroelastic slamming for two-dimensional symmetric flexible bodies is presented in this paper. The hydrodynamic loads are computed using the analytical Modified Logvinovich Model (MLM) with account elastic deflections body surface. described by modal approach. rigid and motions at same time together wetted part coupled problem impact reduced to a system nonlinear ord...

in this paper an energy dissipation rate control (edrc) method is introduced, which could provide stable walking or running gaits for legged robots. this method is realized by developing a semi-analytical pattern generation approach for a robot during each single support phase (ssp). as yet, several control methods based on passive dynamic walking have been proposed by researchers to provide an...
